Meituan LongCat-2.5
Meituan's new 1.6-trillion-parameter multimodal model for long agentic coding tasks is live in its demo and API, with weights promised soon.
LongCat-2.5 is a mixture-of-experts model with 1.6 trillion total parameters and about 48 billion active per token, built on LongCat-2.0 with native image understanding (images are turned into discrete tokens) and more long-horizon agent and coding training. Meituan says it was trained and served on domestic Chinese AI accelerators, including a 4-bit inference setup. Its own benchmark table compares it with GPT-5.6-Sol and Claude Opus 5; those are Meituan's numbers. The online demo and API are open now; Meituan says GitHub and Hugging Face weights will follow, and as of Nov 2 its Hugging Face page still tops out at LongCat-2.0. Checked Nov 3 (about 14:00 UTC): Meituan's Hugging Face organization still has no LongCat-2.5 repository.
